		Lead single You Can Decide was memorable as one of the relatively straightforward pieces from the album, and the set was rousingly short, but these boys will have left much of the audience nonplussed rather than screaming for more.

		This gig felt like everyone had been let in on a secret - Kubb won't be playing venues of this size for very much longer.

	The Morning News - Kubb, by Rosecrans Baldwin
		I’m currently learning how to play basketball, a sport my fiancée and her entire family are very good at.
		Kubb is an old Swedish lawn game, informally known as ‘throwing logs.’ That’s the entire game, actually: you have six wooden dowels that you throw at five wooden blocks.
		If your team can knock over the other team’s blocks, you have a chance at knocking over the King (which has to be knocked over by a pin thrown through the legs).
